Amy Ross Manko travels the world teaching, researching and writing about her favorite topic – Rare Breed Sheep! You may know her from her PLY Magazine’s series – “Sheep on the Edge”, her U.K’s KnitNow magazine breed profiles or her Ross Farm Fibers YouTube channel vlog, Sheep and Wool School. When she’s not spreading the gospel of critically endangered livestock, she’s managing her historic farm, which raises heritage and rare breed sheep, as well as other farm animals. She is the owner of Ross Farm Mercantile Inc at therossfarm.com who provides love and shelter to homeless fiber equipment in her Ohio fiber studio.
